The refit at Point Lepreau doesn't seem to be making any headway, still 18 months behind schedule and losing ground.

Energy Minister Jack Keir tells CHSJ News, the Graham Government realizes this is the number issue for rate-payers right now.

Minister Keir adds officials still have no answer for the ""technical"" problem they have encountered.

Every day the plant is off line, the Province is paying one million dollars for replacement power.
